for Humanity event

IRVINE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Real Living Real Estate, one of the nation’s leading real estate
franchisors and a member of the HSF Affiliates family of real estate
brokerages, announced it recently raised funds for Habitat for Humanity
Tucson during the franchise network’s first-ever 5k Fun Run, sponsored
by realtor.com® that took place at the Annual Sales
Convention, Real Living Connection.

The idea for the 5k Fun Run originated when Robert McAdams Jr.,
president of Real Living Real Estate, sought to create a new
team-building activity that would involve conference attendees in the
Tucson community. “Having a tie-in to a local non-profit and finding a
key sponsor made this fundraising event even more powerful,” he said.
“It’s important to us to give back to the communities whose real estate
needs we serve and Habitat for Humanity’s mission to end homelessness is
a perfect fit for our network.”

After the Fun Run planning was underway, finding the event sponsor was
next and for that role, McAdams looked to realtor.com. “Making dreams
come true, one step at a time seemed too perfect of a connection for
this exclusive sponsorship opportunity,” said McAdams, citing
realtor.com’s recent ad campaign, all about helping consumers find their
dream home.

After meeting with McAdams at the Inman Connect in New York, Leza
VanBeuren, VP of national sales at Move, Inc., which operates
realtor.com, made the commitment to sponsor the Real Living Connection
2017 convention and Real Living 5K Fun Run.

“We instantly recognized the parallels between the efforts of the team
at Real Living Real Estate and our work at realtor.com – in real estate
service, in direct involvement with local communities and our belief in
the importance of home in our lives,” said Ray Picard, executive vice
president at realtor.com. “Habitat for Humanity is one of our favorite
organizations to partner with and we are proud to extend our
contribution through our participation in this event.”

Gino Blefari, CEO of HSF Affiliates, applauded Real Living Real Estate
network professionals on a successful event. “Congratulations to the
network for its support of Habitat for Humanity Tucson,” he said.
“Bringing the dream of homeownership to those who need it most speaks
directly to the core values of Real Living Real Estate.”
